Background
The relationship between parental input and child language development has had a complex history. It has become clear that indirect parent training for the parents of children with delayed language development is an important feature of interventions offered by speech and language therapists in the anglophone countries. Yet we know less about how this type of approach is realised in other countries.
Methods
In this paper we report the results of a survey of practice undertaken as part of the work of COST Action IS1406, a European Union (EU) funded research network. The focus of this paper is specifically on parent-related questions and responses referring to children under the age of twelve. The survey was devised by members of the Action and circulated electronically during the summer of 2017. In all, 4024 practitioners responded from 60 countries, the majority of whom came from EU member countries.
Findings
Respondents to the survey indicated that indirect therapy is commonly carried out via the parent in the early years and via teachers later. A range of professional groups, in addition to speech and language therapists, is likely to adopt this approach; including teachers, pedagogues and psychologists. A variety of interventions is reported, some of which have a reasonable evidence-base underpinning them. It is interesting to see the widespread involvement of fathers and other family members in interventions. Finally, the fact that practitioner characteristics (age, experience, location of practice etc.) are not related to the use of indirect techniques points to the universal recognition of the value of these approaches.
Conclusions
Despite the very different traditions in the practice of intervention across countries, there is clearly a widespread recognition of the importance of indirect approaches to intervention and specifically those focusing on parents. The mixture of family members being involved in interventions is a very promising indication of the role sharing commonly associated with the contemporary family. Yet the number of specific intervention approaches identified is relatively small given the number of respondents. There is a need for a better understanding of what exactly practitioners are doing when they involve parents in intervention or carry out parent-child interaction interventions and how well these interventions work in routine practice. This also has implications for the application of evidence-based practice and the precise nature of the interventions concerned (advice to parents, video interaction training etc.).

2019-08-28T00:00:00ZTrends in tobacco use among adolescents in Spain (2002-2018)https://hdl.handle.net/11441/888122019-08-30T11:44:51Z2019-01-01T00:00:00ZTrends in tobacco use among adolescents in Spain (2002-2018)
Smoking is the single greatest preventable cause of death in the world today. Adolescence is the developmental period during which smoking is most commonly initiated and addiction is likely to happen. The aim of this study is to examine trends in tobacco use among school-aged adolescents in Spain from 2002 to 2018 by sex and age. The sample is composed of 51,046 adolescents aged 15 to 18. Data is representative of the adolescent school population in Spain in 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014 and 2018. The smoking questionnaire provided by the international team of the study Health Behavior in School-aged Children (HBSC) was used. Odds Ratios and 95% confidence intervals were estimated using logistic regression. Data show a decrease in daily tobacco use between 2002 (26.5%) and 2018 (8.7%), but no change was found between 2006 (17.9%) and 2010 (17.4%). This decreasing pattern is stronger in girls than boys to the extent that no differences by sex were found in 2018. Similarly, the decrease was greater in older adolescents, but in this case, the differences by age remained. Daily smoking prevalence among Spanish adolescents aged 15 to 18 in 2018 is 8.7%. Results confirm the need to maintain tobacco prevention and control policies. Measures are presented in order to fight this public health problem; El tabaco es la principal causa de muerte prevenible en todo el mundo. La adolescencia es una etapa clave en la iniciación al hábito tabáquico y en la proclividad a desarrollar adicción a esta sustancia. El objetivo de este trabajo es analizar cómo ha evolucionado el consumo de tabaco de los chicos y chicas adolescentes escolarizados en España desde 2002 a 2018 y si hay diferencias en las tendencias por sexo y por edad. La muestra está conformada por 51.046 participantes de 15 a 18 años, representativos de la población adolescente escolarizada en España en los años 2002, 2006, 2010, 2014 y 2018. Se utilizó el cuestionario de consumo de tabaco consensuado por el equipo internacional del estudio Health Behaviour in School-aged Children (HBSC). Se estimaron las Odds Ratio y los intervalos de confianza del 95% mediante regresiones logísticas. Los resultados muestran una disminución en el consumo diario de tabaco adolescente entre 2002 (26,5%) y 2018 (8,7%) aunque con un periodo de estabilidad entre 2006 (17,9%) y 2010 (17,4%). Esta tendencia de descenso es mayor en las chicas (21,9 puntos) que en los chicos (13,1 puntos) hasta el punto de que en 2018 no hay diferencias en función del sexo. También es mayor en el grupo de 17-18 años (20,2 puntos) que en el de 15-16 años (15,8 puntos), aunque en este caso, permanecen las diferencias en función de la edad. La prevalencia de consumo de tabaco diario en adolescentes de 15 a 18 años es del 8,7% en 2018. Se concluye la conveniencia de no suprimir ni disminuir las políticas de prevención y control del tabaquismo y se proponen nuevas medidas para hacer frente al problema de salud pública que está suponiendo el consumo de tabaco en España
